Don't wait to plan your summer travel!

If you’re anything like us summer always sneaks up faster than anticipated, catching you off guard! This results in last-minute travel planning that doesn’t allow us to take advantage of the best-priced flights. But this year, we are starting to plan our summer early so we can be intentional about our plans and secure the best deals.

Keep scrolling to check out 4 tips for finding the best-priced flights.

Be Flexible with Dates: If your travel dates are flexible, use fare comparison tools that allow you to view prices across multiple dates. Sometimes shifting your travel by a day or two can result in significant savings.

Sign Up for Price Alerts: Subscribe to fare alerts or set up price notifications on booking websites. This way, you’ll be notified when prices drop for your desired route, allowing you to snag the best deals as soon as they become available.

Book in Advance + Avoid Peak Dates: Generally, booking flights well in advance can lead to better prices, especially for popular routes and peak travel seasons. Aim to book your flights at least a few weeks in advance and avoid peak travel seasons or on weekends to secure lower fares. Instead, opt for mid-week flights or travel during off-peak seasons to find better deals.

Clear Browser Cookies: Some booking websites may track your searches and raise prices for flights you’ve repeatedly viewed. To avoid this, consider clearing your browser cookies or using incognito mode when searching for flights.

Happy planning!
